“🚨 From Tea to Tears: Ellen DeGeneres & Wife Reportedly DONE With England – Here’s Why They’re Headed Back to America 🏃‍♀️🇺🇸”

 

Ellen DeGeneres, once the reigning queen of daytime TV, has spent the last few years retreating from the limelight.

After her show ended amid controversy and backlash, she and wife Portia de Rossi made what many saw as a bold — even brilliant — move: leaving the U.S.and relocating to a countryside estate in rural England.

The press called it a “healing journey.

” Ellen called it “a chance to breathe.

” But insiders are now revealing that behind the carefully curated Instagram shots and quaint afternoon teas… is a life far more isolating and difficult than the couple imagined.

According to a source close to the pair, “Ellen was craving simplicity — but England has been anything but simple.

For starters, there’s the weather.

“It’s grey.It’s wet.

And it’s relentless,” the insider said.

“Ellen’s used to California sunshine, morning hikes, and coastal views.

England’s vibe is… darker.

But it wasn’t just the climate that clashed — it was the culture.

“They thought they’d be left alone,” the source continues.

“But there’s a different kind of scrutiny in the UK.

A polite distance — but a very watchful eye.

Ellen’s not used to feeling like the outsider.

And Portia? She’s struggling too.

Apparently, Portia had hoped England would bring creative inspiration and calm.

Instead, friends say she’s been battling waves of homesickness and even — reportedly — depression.

“They miss their rhythm.

Their friends.

Their space.

They’ve gone from a sprawling Montecito mansion to a creaky old manor house with spiders and drafty walls.

Ellen, known for her routine and control, reportedly hates the lack of structure in their current life.

“She wakes up and doesn’t know what to do anymore,” another source claims.

“And it’s starting to wear on their marriage.

According to several industry insiders, the couple originally planned to spend a full year in the UK — but now, just five months in, they’re considering cutting their stay short.

One assistant reportedly overheard Ellen say, “We made a mistake coming here.

And fans are starting to pick up on the shift, too.

On social media, followers have noticed fewer posts, fewer smiles, and far more cryptic captions.

Portia’s last upload featured a blurry photo of an empty garden with the caption: “Not everything grows where you plant it.

” Followers were quick to interpret it as a metaphor for their failing UK experiment.

And then there’s the quote that triggered a full media spiral.

During a recent Zoom appearance with a small Los Angeles nonprofit, Ellen was caught off guard when asked how she was adjusting to English life.

Her reply?

“It’s hard.

I’m not going to lie.

Life in England is hard.

The clip, though short, went viral within hours.

Fans immediately began speculating: Was this a cry for help? A hint that she’s preparing for a return to Hollywood? Or a sign of deeper dissatisfaction that could spill over into her personal life?

So far, the couple has remained publicly silent — no official statement, no confirmations.

But insiders say they’ve already contacted a real estate firm in Los Angeles, and a close friend of Portia’s recently told a tabloid: “They’re ready to come home.

They gave it a shot.

But this isn’t their forever.

If true, this marks yet another twist in Ellen DeGeneres’s complex post-television journey.

Once adored, then criticized, then exiled — and now perhaps… coming back?

Some speculate the move back could signal a larger plan: a return to the screen, a rebrand, a second act.

Others believe it’s simply emotional exhaustion.

“She wanted to disappear,” one source says.

“But maybe she disappeared too far.

In the meantime, fans are holding their breath — and scanning every photo, every quote, every whisper from the English countryside — for a sign that the Ellen & Portia era of international exile is ending.

And maybe, just maybe, they’ll return not just to America…
But to themselves.

Because even in a 17th-century estate surrounded by sheep and ivy-covered walls, you can’t outrun the storm inside.

Especially when the clouds never clear.
